One word....hell yeah!
If you have the white roof, white bonnet stripes and white wing mirrors, then the wheels just complete the look and my MINI looks far better then if it just had plain silver ones! I mean the white wheels cost NO extra to have and make the car stand out more...I mean how many other cars have white wheels?!
And people say they show up the dirt more...well yeah but generally people clean their MINIs regularly to keep their pride and joys looking amazing! And in Summer, when the roads are wet or muddy, the sun just beams off my wheels and looks the part!
And in winter, just do what I do...stay off the sides of the road and a lot less crap gets on them!
Someone said to me, that changing the brake pads reduces the amount of brake dust put on to them...but it just takes me 10 minutes maximum and a hosepipe to clean my wheels.
Overall: Same price and look amazing!
